Why it works

The eastern Los Padres encompasses the Sespe Wilderness — the largest wilderness area in Southern California — along with the Sespe Condor Sanctuary and a network of trails and OHV routes that require detailed mapping to navigate. The forest's inland location means it sees far less traffic than the Big Sur coast, making accurate trail and road detail essential for visitors exploring less-traveled areas. Waterproof construction survives the heat and occasional rain common in Southern California's inland ranges.

Ideal for

Hikers, backpackers, OHV riders, and anglers exploring the eastern Los Padres National Forest and Sespe Wilderness in California. See also NGTI813 (Los Padres National Forest West) for coastal coverage and NGTIB299 (Los Padres Bundle) for the complete forest.
